Can't start XdaIIi PLEASE HELP!

My XdaIIi has been working fine lately. But I tried installing the new ROM v 1.11.171 and partway through the installation, suddenly the screen just goes gray and it says nothing but "serial doc version is error". I can't soft or hard reset, the screen just stays as is. I took the battery out and then soft reset works and I can proceed to set up my PDA again but again before it finishes setting up, the gray screen saying "serial doc version is error", pops up again. Am I screwed? Please help.
Go back from whence you came...
Seeing as you seem to be able to start the process again have you tried going back to the previous (or an earlier) ROM?
In the Alpine Upgrade forum near the top you will find a posting from Pug that has 4 162 ROMs, I'm using the fourth without issue and the flash was a piece of cake.
XDAIIi rom update
I had the same fault when upgrading my ROM, found the solution to be to downgrade activesync to version 3.7.1, then the upgrades flew through (takes about 120mins. on serial so best to do 25mins on USB if you can

What windows are you running? XP or Vista?
Do you have an error number?
I run windows Vista and the error number i get is 101 Connection error when i attempt to run BaUpgradeUT
on the PDA the only screen i fet is the bootloader screen with SERIAL and V.2.06
Ok, the problem in flashing our precious BA under vista is that you need to replace the usb driver with an old version so the updater will work correctly.
Search the forums for vista update or vista flash and you will get the answer and the driver you need.
thanks a lot i ll try it right now been waiting for this
OK i just searched for vista flash and found this post

uninstall activesync. reboot your computer, then download and reinstall activesync from the microsoft website.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
Then try running the HARDSPL again.
did that but still getting 202 connection error it just stops right before the bootloader screen this is a herald ruu does it matter
Did you follow the directions PERFECTLY? install the Cab file on ur phone ...etc...?

If none of this works just take a hammer to the phone and you will be done ..
No i'm just joking . I have seen this error now that I have done several phones. Try doing the process from the very beginning ... Some phones you may have to do a hard reset before they want to listen. So back up all your data , do a hard reset and then follow the instructions for HardSPL. Also a fresh reboot of your computer helps as well ...

Error 101: Connection Error

Hello.
Im new here, first of all sorry for my english, and second thanks for this forum.
I have problems with upgrading my Siemens SX66 WM6.0 pro to a WM6.1
The ROM upgrade software tells me there is an Error 101: Connection Error
exactly like this
bilbo--baggins
Every time I try to do the rom upgrade for my PDA2K the device does a soft reset (when it's reset it then reconnects to activsync, and the green logo reappears) and after a while the ROM upgrade software tells me there is an Error 101 Connection Error. It's driving me nuts, I've tried all sorts of variants, soft reset first, hard reset first, USB port, USB2 port, Activesync 3.7.1, activesync 3.8, Windows XP, Windows 98. I don't understand why there is a connection error, because I can connect to activesync correctly, it even reconnects after the ROM upgrade causes it to do a soft reset. Please help! I've even tried following directions to copy the temporary files and running those directly but the result is the same.

can anyone help to solve this problem.
i have no problem with active syn connection, its synchronized with out any problem. my OS is winXP sp2.
This is a well known issue, I am sure its addressed in the Wikki on this site. The solution is don't reset your device when the on screen instructions ask you to do so, just continue with the upgrade.
Enjoy your new device once you have upgraded.
ok
i run upgrade program, the i like in instruction i put sx66 in to the cradle, active sync starting to synchronize well. then i push the next button in the upgrade program, the active sync is turning off and after couple minutes there is a message 'bout Error 101
p.s. the upgrade file i download from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372485

blank screen after starting update

hi guys, i got given my imate pda2k and have tried to re-flash the rom that was already on it, it was all going well till i got some sort of error and now all i have is a blank screen that says "serial" at the top and"v2.08" at the bottom, now ive tried all the resets, soft and hard resets and tried to reflash again but same problem, how do i get it working again, is there a proper step by step guide for dummys lmao (please dont say use search as i already have and none of it makes sence lol, im new to all this, usually im an iphone fan)
right ive gone through the steps from chef tony's tutorial using MTTY but when i set it up it does nothing and trying to install a WM5 or WM6 rom doesnt work as it keeps saying that the RUU isnt for my device but even though my device says I-MATE PDA2K on the front, the imei sticker says blueangel so im now even more confused on how to kick this out of serial/usb mode as i keep gettin error 101 connection not possible and it is now becoming annoying and will get thrown at the wall soon if i cant sort it
before trying mtty, press CTRL ALT DEL and fine wssescom or somthing and kill, it make sure u hake XP
